Core metaDEX Properties

HOOKED is designed with three core properties that distinguish it from previous DEX architectures. First, it supports both concentrated (V3-style) and full-range (V2-style) liquidity, allowing each asset pair to adopt the model best suited to its characteristics. This flexibility ensures that capital is deployed with maximum efficiency across diverse markets.

Second, HOOKED allows protocols to own their own incentives by directing emissions to their pools. This makes liquidity acquisition more sustainable and reduces reliance on short-term mercenary capital or costly external programs.

Finally, the exchange is built on Uniswap V4’s hook architecture, giving it modular and composable infrastructure. Protocols and developers can extend functionality through custom hooks, while HOOKED integrates seamlessly with the wider DeFi ecosystem.

Fees and Revenue Sharing​

HOOKED’s oracle-driven fee system adjusts dynamically to market conditions such as volume and volatility. Traders benefit from competitive pricing with strict caps, while LPs earn fair compensation.

All fees are directed into voter incentives, drawing emissions toward liquidity providers. High-performing pools generate more fees, incentivizing $veHOOKED holders to vote for them, which attracts emissions and deepens liquidity. This cycle increases trading volume and protocol revenue.

Fee distribution:​

  • High-performing pairs generate more fees
  • $veHOOKED holders are more incentivized to vote
  • Increased emissions attract deeper liquidity
  • Deeper liquidity drives more volume and fees
